4 Outline Overview of the ICU Liberation Collaborative and Committee Outcomes related to delirium Role of executive sponsors Keys to successful implementation

5 Why does delirium matter?

6 Post Intensive Care Syndrome Proposed during 2010 SCCM interprofessional stakeholders conference Unifying definition for PICS: new or worsening impairments in physical, cognitive, or mental health status arising after critical illness and persisting beyond acute care hospitalization. Needham et al. Crit Care Med 2012; 40

7 The burden of ICU survivorship I nearly ended my life a few times. When I returned to work, the work I did before seemed foreign and unfamiliar. I became isolated and excluded from everyone. No one wanted to be around me. My wife of more than 36 years told me that I was just feeling sorry for myself, and I just needed to get on with my life. I nearly ended my life a few times. My family believed that I was just faking it all. ICUdelirium.org

15 Importance of Executive Sponsorship

16 Collaboration

17 Guideline Recommendation = Teamwork We recommend using an interprofessional ICU team approach that includes provider education, pre- printed and/or computerized protocols and order forms, and quality ICU rounds checklists to facilitate the use of pain, agitation, and delirium management guidelines or protocols in adult ICUs (+1B). Barr J Crit Care Med. 2013; 41:

18 ICU Liberation Committee Established by SCCM Council in 2016 Interprofessional membership with expertise and interest in the activities of ICU Liberation, PAD guidelines, and A-F Bundle Primary responsibilities: Education Implementation Promotion/Liaison activities

19 Delirium: Epidemiology and Short-Term Outcomes Prevalence 50% to 80% of mechanically ventilated patients 20% to 50% of lower severity patients Associated outcomes Prolonged hospitalization Increased mortality Increased cost Ely E JAMA. 2001;286: Dubois M. Intensive Care Med. 2001;27: Ely E JAMA. 2003;289: Ely E JAMA. 2004;291: Thomason JW. Crit Care. 2005;9:R Milbrandt EB Crit Care Med. 2004; 32:

20 Delirium: Long-Term Outcomes Mortality Each day of delirium in the ICU increases the hazard of 1-year mortality by 10% 1 Cognitive Impairment ICU delirium is an independent risk factor for longterm cognitive impairment 2,3 34% with scores similar to moderate TBI 24% with scores similar to mild Alzheimer disease 1 Pisani MA Am J Respir Crit Care Med. 2009;180: Girard T Crit Care Med.2010;38: Pandharipande PP N Engl J Med. 2013;369(14):

21 PAD guidelines: delirium assessment Routinely monitor for delirium in all adult ICU patients (+1B) Use either: Confusion Assessment Method for ICU (CAM-ICU) Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist (ICDSC) Barr J Crit Care Med. 2013;41

22 CAM-ICU Pooled Test Characteristics: Sensitivity 80% Specificity 96% > 0.91

23 Interventions for delirium Early mobility and rehabilitation Sleep enhancement (via nonpharm and hygiene bundles) Reducing unnecessary and deliriogenic medications Structured reorientation Adequate oxygenation American Geriatric Society 2014 Guidelines. J Am Geriat Soc. 2016;63(1) Inouye SK NEJM. 1999;340(9) McNamara L. Am J Crit Care. 2008;17

24 Executive Sponsors

25 How can health care executives support ICU Liberation as a primary delirium initiative? Join the team as executive sponsor Attend regular Bundle team meetings and performance reports Visit the ICUs (go to the GEMBA) Understand and address barriers to implementation IT/EHR Operations and environmental issues Family waiting rooms, consult rooms, sleep spaces

26 Executive support for meaningful recognition Critical Care Societies Collaborative support meaningful recognition as an intervention contributing to healthy work environments and may combat stress and Burnout Syndrome Recognize staff efforts to implement the ABCDEF Bundle Staff recognition boards in waiting rooms Huddle boards Training efforts Moss M et al. Crit Care Med 2016, 44(7):

Patient Experience Quality & Safety Our People Financial Strength Strategic Growth Learning Health System Patient & caregiver distress Mortality Institutionalization Hospitalacquired complications Restraint use Staff burnout Cost per case Safety attendant use Length of Stay Readmissions Education gap exists between current practice & best practice Dementia Slide courtesy of Stephanie Rogers, MD

30 Delirium as a quality indicator The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) correlates higher delirium rates with lower quality of hospital care Hospitals will increasingly be judged and rated on how they address delirium (Inouye NEJM 2006)

35 Signs and Symptoms

36 Brochure Example Handing patients and families written materials can be helpful in reinforcing education. Create documents at the appropriate reading level. Consider involving family members in the creation of materials.

37 Guidelines for Family-Centered Care in the Neonatal, Pedicatric and Adult ICU 29 international experts with consultation from 27 former patients and family members Nascent field of research thus all recommendations are graded as weak based on very low-mod quality of evidence Davidson et al. Crit Care Med 2017; 45:

38 Effective and Safety of an Extended ICU Visitation Model for Delirium Prevention: A Before and After Case Study Crit Care Med 2017 Prospective single center, before-after study of extended visitation model 31 bed med-surg ICU Change from restricted (4.5hr/d) to extended (12 hr/d) model

39 Delirium-free survival

40 Implementation of the A-F Bundle Several recent studies demonstrate positive outcomes with bundle implementation Success likely depends on multiple strategies used to change practice and culture Organizational change and senior leadership support is essential

41 Bundle Implementation Success: key findings from a meta-analysis 21 studies, all including process measures and 9 with clinical outcomes data

42 Bundle Implementation Success: key findings from a meta-analysis, cont d A variety of programs improved process measures e.g., 92% Delirium screening adherence Using more implementation strategies (6 or more) and integrating PAD guidelines or ABCDE bundle: Statistically lower mortality and shorter ICU LOS Delirium incidence static; delirium duration may be better metric Strategies targeting organizational changes in addition to provider behavior also associated with reduced mortality Trogrlić Z. Critical Care 2015; 19:157

43 Effectiveness and Safety of the Awakening and Breathing Coordination, Delirium Monitoring/Management and Early Exercise/Mobility Bundle Single-center 18 month prospective, cohort study in six units 3 day improvement in vent-free days (p = 0.04) Reduced delirium (odds ratio, 0.55; 95% CI, ; p = 0.03) Improved ICU mobilization Balas M et al. Crit Care Med 2014; 42

44 California Study Prospective cohort quality improvement initiative For every 10% increase in: Total bundle compliance 7% increase in hospital survival Partial bundle compliance 15% increase in hospital survival More days without delirium and coma with total and partial bundle compliance Barnes-Daly M. et al. 2016

45 Challenges to implementation ICUs often have multiple, possibly competing, QI initiatives CAUTI, HAPU, VAP, Sepsis bundles, etc. Delirium interventions, including A-F Bundle, are different Every patient, every day Interprofessional approach

46 UCSF & ICU Liberation: lessons learned Early adopter of protocols (SATs/SBTs, CPOT, CAM-ICU, EM, etc.) but we still struggled with compliance and culture Recent surveys & data analysis demonstrate the need for daily work and commitment RASS goals, SAT and SBT coordination, family engagement, interprofessional rounds

47 Lessons learned from ICU Liberation Rounds must be the focus and foundation of interprofessional practice. Maximum effort should be directed to establishing and sustaining true interprofessional rounds. IPT rounds facilitate: Each professional practicing to the highest extent of his or her capabilities and expertise Respect and optimal communication among all ICU professionals Best coordinated care possible
